Augustan Inscriptions with Dr Abigail Graham

After an introduction to Roman epigraphy (what do we mean by inscriptions and how can we go about reading them?), Dr Abigail Graham (Institute of Classical Studies) explores how we should analyse these types of sources and consider their limitations as well as the information they shed on the ancient past.

She then hones in on the Augustan inscriptions that are part of the A Level Roman Period Study syllabus, considering both victory monuments and smaller religious inscriptions.
